    Pros as Reggio posted. Cons are that sometimes after a full day of kindergarten your child may be in need of down time away from friends and appreciate being either allowed to be alone in his room away from the babies too or being the big helper to entertain the babies once home. Get a sense of the time the bus comes now and what time you close to get an idea of how long you would have to entertain the older kids. Unfortunately that is often what happens is that they come home and expect to be the centre of attention so you end up with two separate groups to deal with. Your son alone will be easier to integrate into the existing group than two older kids. At the same time if all the others are over 2 then it won't be as dramatic a shift.

    Personally once my own kids were going to the bus stop alone I stopped doing school age kids. I so do not miss their attitudes, hyperness after school, and appetite for the dab of money I was getting.

    What about adding a one year old now that would be 18 months by September and give you an older group to deal with.
